Jiang Chen’s gaze locked onto the leader of the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

At that moment, the leader of the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves keenly sensed Jiang Chen’s stare.

Its body, as large and sturdy as a calf, trembled slightly.

At the same time, a ferocious glint shot from its eyes.

It was as if Jiang Chen looking at it was a provocation.

Intolerable.

"AWOOO..."

It suddenly let out a roar at Jiang Chen.

The sound shook the mountain forest.

The pack instantly turned their heads, looking at the human who dared to provoke their leader.

Every one of their eyes burned with a savage light.

As for Jiang Chen, the moment he locked onto the Wolf King,

his body moved.

"SWOOSH!"

He shot forward, his figure agile, wielding the Cloud Mist Sword as he raced toward the Wolf King with a sharp gaze.

This move, however, startled the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

After all, Jiang Chen and his group were at a severe disadvantage.

But now, Jiang Chen was actually the first to attack, which struck the wolves as utterly unbelievable.

"AWOOO..."

However, the pack gave Jiang Chen no opening at all.

This was especially true for these Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, all of them powerful Demon Beasts.

They already possessed high intelligence.

They naturally knew exactly what Jiang Chen’s target was: their leader.

How could they possibly let Jiang Chen threaten their leader?

They lunged toward Jiang Chen in near-perfect unison.

Every single Purple-Haired Demon Wolf emanated a ferocious killing intent.

The Purple-Haired Demon Wolves were known for their savagery.

A hundred Purple-Haired Demon Wolves charged at Jiang Chen together.

The pressure on Zhan Yang and the others lessened.

However, seeing so many Purple-Haired Demon Wolves swarming Jiang Chen, their expressions changed drastically.

They cried out in alarm.

"Jiang Chen, be careful."

Even Lev had never imagined that Jiang Chen would dare to charge into the wolf pack alone.

He was especially in awe of Jiang Chen’s bravery.

At the same time, he silently prayed for him.

As for Jiang Chen, he didn’t give it a second thought. He had successfully drawn the attention of the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, which was his goal.

Only by drawing their attention could he ensure the safety of Zhan Yang and the others.

"SHING! SHING!"

As Jiang Chen charged toward the Wolf King, a Purple-Haired Demon Wolf immediately pounced on him from the side.

"AWOOO..."

The first Purple-Haired Demon Wolf, a Martial Master Fifth Heaven, had an incredibly ferocious aura.

It leaped up in an instant, its calf-like body about to descend upon Jiang Chen.

Its gaping maw revealed menacing fangs.

A foul stench assaulted his nose.

"Die!"

The Cloud Mist Sword in Jiang Chen’s hand instantly slashed out.

"SPLAT!"

Even though the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf’s body was tough and its defense was astonishing,

Jiang Chen’s Cloud Mist Sword still cleaved it in two with a single strike.

Fresh blood splattered everywhere.

He had slain a Purple-Haired Demon Wolf with one slash.

But even more Purple-Haired Demon Wolves pounced.

The smell of blood further incited the vicious nature of the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

"AWOO! AWOO! AWOO..."

One by one, the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves howled, their eyes turning red.

"SCHLICK!"

Jiang Chen slew more than ten Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, but he was no match for such numbers.

A Purple-Haired Demon Wolf seized an opportunity and sank its teeth into Jiang Chen’s calf.

"Hiss..."

Jiang Chen sucked in a sharp breath.

His calf was about to be bitten clean off by the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf.

After all, the bite force of a Purple-Haired Demon Wolf was astonishing; a single bite could be fatal even for him.

In the heat of the moment, Jiang Chen’s sword instantly swept past.

"SHLICK!"

With a flash of the blade, the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf’s head was lopped off.

The wolf’s head remained clamped to Jiang Chen’s calf.

A row of wounds had appeared on his calf where the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf had bitten him, and blood flowed ceaselessly.

The pain made Jiang Chen grimace.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen finally flew into a rage.

"Shadowless Sword, Second Form, Sword Intent Startled Swan!"

He suddenly pointed his sword to the sky, and rays of sword light began to converge.

In almost an instant, a Sword Aura nearly thirty meters long materialized.

The Sword Qi was heaven-shaking.

Now that Jiang Chen was using Sword Intent Startled Swan with his full power, he could even hold his own against a Martial King Expert for a while.

"Kill!"

He plunged into the pack of Purple-Haired Demon Wolves with his sword.

The sword light swept out viciously.

"SWOOSH!"

Wherever the sword light passed, the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves shrieked wretchedly.

Severed limbs flew through the air.

"AWOO! AWOO..."

However, executing Sword Intent Startled Swan had indeed consumed a great deal of Jiang Chen’s Cultivation Power.

After that wave of attacks, Jiang Chen’s Sword Intent had clearly weakened.

Although he had slain seven or eight Purple-Haired Demon Wolves with one strike, an endless stream of them still remained behind. They were even more ferocious now, pouncing without fear of death.

Soon, Jiang Chen’s Sword Intent was completely depleted by the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

The price for this was another ten or so dead Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

There were still about seventy Purple-Haired Demon Wolves remaining.

They swarmed densely around Jiang Chen.

The pressure on Jiang Chen was immense.

"Sword Intent Startled Swan!"

He condensed the Sword Intent Startled Swan for a second time.

’With my current Cultivation, managing to condense four Sword Auras from Sword Intent Startled Swan would be the best I can hope for.’

’But there’s no time to overthink it. I have to go all out.’

"SWOOSH!"

Another Sword Aura swept past, and another ten or so Purple-Haired Demon Wolves were slain.

Jiang Chen’s Sword Intent finally dissipated.

This was a massive battle of attrition.

Jiang Chen used Sword Intent Startled Swan three times in a row.

He had killed nearly half of the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, but half still remained.

Jiang Chen’s Cultivation Power was almost completely drained.

It left his face pale.

Among the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, those at the Martial Master Fifth Heaven were a minority. Most were at the Sixth Level of Martial Master, Martial Master Seventh Heaven, or even Martial Master Eighth Layer Heaven.

The stronger ones were even at the Martial Master Ninth Heaven.

And their leader was at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that this Purple-Haired Demon Wolf leader was only at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens. In truth, its combat power was likely comparable to an ordinary Martial King Expert.

’This isn’t working. I have to use my trump card.’

Jiang Chen was also feeling the strain. He knew he couldn’t just tough it out anymore.

He only had enough for one last strike of Sword Intent Startled Swan.

And his Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique was constantly running, affecting the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

But it wasn’t enough to kill all the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

He made up his mind.

A porcelain vial appeared in his hand.

’Soul-Breaking Poison.’

’There isn’t much left. I’ll use it all this time.’

That’s right, what Jiang Chen took out was the Soul-Breaking Poison.

He didn’t have much Soul-Breaking Poison left.

He used it decisively.

Holding the vial, Jiang Chen waved his hand, and the colorless, odorless Soul-Breaking Poison drifted directly toward the surrounding Purple-Haired Demon Wolves.

Although the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves had a keen sense of smell, it was impossible for them to detect Jiang Chen’s Soul-Breaking Poison.

"THUD!"

The first Purple-Haired Demon Wolf fell to the ground and began to convulse.

Soon, one after another, the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves all collapsed and started convulsing.

Their eyes rolled back in their heads.

They didn’t even know why they were suddenly collapsing.

Seeing this, Zhan Yang and the others stared with wide eyes.

At first, they had been worried that Jiang Chen couldn’t hold off the Purple-Haired Demon Wolves, but now they watched in astonishment as the wolves suddenly collapsed and convulsed.

The scene was utterly bizarre.

Lev was a strong practitioner in his own right, so he was naturally beyond shocked.

"What a formidable method," he marveled.
